from a 0-10 scale i'd say about a 5 well i got it done with a gun so it might hurt more or less with a needle if you get it done with a gun there is a higher risk of your cartilage shatering it rare but there is the slightest chance i would seggest a needle:0)
The sensation is a bit more intense because you are getting two piercings in one sitting and it's done with a needle not a gun. so it should be not too bad about the same as the cartilage piercing.
no
Chicken cartilage can be eaten by larger dogs. Small dogs may get the chicken cartilage stuck in their throats and choked.
This may not be correct, but i have been told that cartilage is to stop joints from rubbing together and getting worn out.
Eating and ear cartilage have no relation to each other, besides being on the same head, food has nothing to do with the cartilage piercing.
It is a little bit more painful than getting your cartilage pierced which is extremely thick cartilage. if you haven't felt that pain, I wouldn't advise getting it done. However, it is a super cool piercing!! :) good luck ;D
Well that's the joy of getting ear cartilage pierced with a piercing gun, they studs are not designed nor intended to be used in the cartilage, however there is always some moron willing to do what they are not supposed to do with a piercing gun. The lumps on the backs of your ears are called cauliflower ear" this occurs when the skin or dermal layer is torn away from the cartilage and not reattached to the cartilage, the void fills with fluid which crystallizes and forms the lumps you now have. Sorry to break it to you.
yes it hurt a bit after 2 or 3 hours
Not bad really, but it has no real food value and some people can have difficulty digesting it.
I'd wait till your lobes are completely or nearly completely healed. Cartilage piercings take longer to heal and if your body is trying to heal your lobes AND cartilage at the same time, it'll take even longer for your cartilage to heal. So, 2-3 mths.
just don't think about it too much! the more you think about it, the more you'll freak yourself out. its not as bad as you think its going to be! i did mine myself....if i can shove a needle through my ear and come out fine then I'm sure that getting it done proffesionally isn't anything to worry about. just go and do it!
If the infection gets bad enough yes, but more than likely nothing will happen.
